yangindex — a balance beam for publication records
A bibliometric instrument that turns an author's selected papers into a centre-of-mass measure of credited work and research focus.
Field notes
The interface accepts a name, optional ORCID, affiliations, and year range, then lets users remove papers that belong to another person with the same name. Selected records receive credited mass and appear as solid or open circles on a beam whose fulcrum marks the calculated centre of mass. Outputs include M, C on a 0–100 scale, and T (M × C), with CSV and beam downloads. The site also places conventional citation measures beside its own instrument and warns that the measure is unvalidated.
